RAILROAD DICK TURPINs.
Rariy In the Evening a Train stopped and
100000 stsIen-The Robbers Escape.

A train bound north over the St. Louis,
Arkansas & Texas Railway was stopped
by three masked men ten miles from Tex
arkana and robbed. The express car
was robbed, but the passengers and mail
were not molested. r. p. Johnson the
postal clerk on duty at the time, says that
the train was suddenly stopped when
moving ont of Geneva Station. He saw
three rough-looking men board the en-
gine, and he knew something was wrong,
so he blew out the lights in his compart.
ment and locked the doors. The express
messenger did the same thing. The rob.
bers were armed with Winchester rifles
and q couple of pistols each. They or
dered the doors to be opened and fired
several shots through the windows. They
then used pickaxe and johnson fired
one shot out through the window, which
was answered by volley. Finding re-
sistance useless and the lives of the en-
gineer aud fireman at stake, the express
messenger opened his doors when light
was struck and the search by the robbers
began. johnson does not know accu-
rately, but thinks the robbers must have
gotten $4,000. A good deal of Losis!-
ana Lottery money in small denomina-
tions was taken. The leader Of the rob
bsrs was much agitated and the mail
clerk told him he was more scared than
he (Johnson) was. johnson says that he
would know one of the men anywhere.
The conductor opened the door and was
fred on. There was panic among the
passengers, who seemed paralyzed with
fear. After cutting the express car they
entered the mail car. johnson expOs.u-
lated that that was Uncle Sans domin-
ion, and that they had already good
deal of booty and if they disturbed the
mails it would go hard with them. They
said: THAT is so," and that they would
not touch the mails. Great excitement
prevails in the region of the robbery and
mounted men are securing the woods
everywhere. After the robbery officers
were soon on the ground, aud two Of
them had a running fight with the rob
bers for about mile and a half. One
robber lost his hat and cartridge box.
Another was wounded, as shown by
blood along the trail.

couple lived in the old house. and one
day the father, entering q room used
by the brothers as sort OF study, dis
covered, TO his horror, Auguste lying
on the ground with bullet through his
heart and Emil sitting in q distant
conner OF the room crying and talking
to himself. At the inquest an open
verdict was returned, there being no
yestiee OF proof to show bow the deed
wss committed. Emil left that house
a modman. For fifteen years he was
confined in on asylum, and upon his
release it was found that he had
lest the power of speech and that me-
mcry was q blank. One strange hal
Inclination, however, remained. lie
imagined that he was always being
pursued by the police, and for that
rerson would only visit his wife's house
after dark, and then 10y on unfrequent-
ed and circuitous route. To humor
him Mrs. Rossiter arranged q signal =
three taps on the door-by which he
could always obtain admittance. On
the occasion Of my first visit to their
house happened unwittingly to make
use of that signal. Mrs. Rcsslter,
hearing three taps, naturally imagined
that her husband was seeking admit
tance-hence my reception.
Her part in the strange drama had
been an exceptionally hard one. De-
voted to her husband and loving him
with an intensity which his sad afflic-
ton only increased, it was her fate to
have that love spurned and her deyo-
ton treated with indifference. His
whole life was wrapped up in that
of his daughter, born few
months after his committal to
the asylum. He would sit for hours
by her side watching every move
ment and anticipating every want and
never taking the slightest notice of his
wife, who sat silent and despairing,
smiling at her own grief. The mad
mans hatred for me was solely from
the fact that he imagined L would take
his daughter away from him, and thus
destroy the one bright CLEAN of happi-
ness in his life.
